What looks like fine-tuning is, in this picture, the price of global consistency plus one overall “pixel size” that sets the scale.

@MonkEmma Let's debunk Emma's "debunking".
Emma claims the document is about the sensitivities of all religions and not just Islam. She implies that a Jehovah's Witness not liking competitive sport is just the same as a Muslim child not wanting to draw humans.
But is it?

@MonkEmma Do we have any evidence of Jehovah's Witnesses demanding schools give up competitive sports to accommodate them?
My religious upbringing similarly discouraged competitive sports. Did my parents ever demand the school change their curriculum to accommodate me? No, of course not

@MonkEmma Would a Muslim parent demand that the school change their lessons so as not to draw Mohammed or Jesus, or possibly any human? Almost certainly, yes.
Middle-strike drones like the FP-2 are particularly well suited for destroying moving targets such as fuel or logistics trains.
Those can patrol along a route and wait for the target to appear, striking once it enters the area, something far harder to achieve with missile strikes like GMLRS.

➡️ Venezuelan investigative journalist and writer Carlos Flores, who specializes in corruption, drug trafficking and narco-politics joined the #SafeBoxNetwork of Forbidden Stories to protect his information.
He was forced into exile after more than 20 years of threats tied to his work and publications: death threats, armed attack against his newsroom, surveillance, intimidation, economic pressure and harassment from individuals linked to the Chavista regime.
Today, Carlos is part of a broad network of more than 240 journalists at risk who protect the sensitive information behind their ongoing investigations through Forbidden Stories’ #SafeBoxNetwork.
BREAKING: Prime Minister Keir Starmer knew of Mandelson's intimate friendship with Epstein years after conviction (up to 2014), about his ties to a sanctioned Russian defence giant and that Palantir remained his client - *during his ambassadorship* /1 bylinetimes.com/2026/03/11/rev…
Govt due diligence stated that “the retained role and interest in Global Counsel would have to cease if appointed HMA” – His Majesty’s Ambassador. Lord Mandelson did not comply. /2
Despite that advice, Mandelson continued to retain his 21% shareholding in Global Counsel until February 2026, when revelations of the depth of his relationship with Epstein came to light. /3
🍎 What does anti-corruption have to do with school lunches?
More than it might seem and the International School Nutrition Day is a good reason to remind us all.
More than it might seem and the International School Nutrition Day is a good reason to remind us all.
In many countries, this day provides a reason to talk about food culture, children's health, and the role of the educational environment in shaping habits. For Ukraine, it is an opportunity to highlight a big reform that began five years ago and has expanded far beyond food.
Integrity has become an "ingredient" in school lunches. In May 2024, the EUACI, together with the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine and the School Nutrition Reform Team, launched a pilot project to minimize corruption risks in modernizing school canteens.

1/ News that the Iranian regime is proving more resilient than expected highlights its unusual governing structure as a 'polydictatorship'. In many ways, it was designed from the ground up to resist regime change. ⬇️
2/ The regime comprises a multi-layered set of elected and unelected institutions that shares power across religious bodies bodies, the armed forces (particularly the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps), and economic entities. Each provides a separate and distinct power centre.
3/ They each have their own institutional bases, resources, coercive capacity, and claims to legitimacy — none of which fully controls the others, but which collectively make the regime more resilient to internal and external shocks.
I have looked back at what I predicted in Stories of The Law and How It’s Broken in 2018, about how governments will try to remove serious trials from juries and choke off the right to appeal.
All of this is now in the Bill before Parliament. Only the govt is going even further.

If you fancy torturing yourself by reading about a broken criminal justice system which has been broken even further since this was published, the award-winning Number 1 bestseller etc etc is available here, and lots of other places.

Many of the MPs who voted to remove juries and hand enormous power to magistrates to try serious criminal cases and imprison people for up to 2 years know about the problems.
Because they were all sent a copy of this damned book.
Including David Lammy.
